Anyone else getting rid of pietrie??!?!?@?

Tittan99 · February 21, 2011, 06:28:01 PM

So basically i had my team all worked out and i was watching peitrie this week and i was not very impressed apparently he will miss the fist game because of ban and he will miss the third week because of a kangas buy. I am very inclined to get rid of him atm.

So i downgraded prestia to sumner to build up some cash to upgrade peitrie

who should i upgrade to?
Warnock
Marik
Fraser
Pyke
Trengrove J
Seaby
Or wood.

Curently warnock, Trengrove and wood are the ones who i have my eye on or do you guys reckon i should just keep petrie in??? Tell me what you think

get off him by all means ... ;)

but seriously, way too early to make this sort of decision ...

look if he's got inj concerns leading up to Rd1 then he's a possible upgrade target, but for me if he's inj-free but suspended for Rd1, i'm not going to burn a trade to bring him in when he's going to play Rd2 or 5 (worst case tribunal wise i'm guessing).

just my opinion ...

If he is banned rd1 and u got him as ruck who s your cover

Well my current postition is:
Krak+ Polec/Gaff/150k mid rookie (wont use it just will be in the bank) V Petrie + Atley/100k mid rookie

Thoughts? Krak V Petrie?

JS: Petrie with ease
Scoring Potential: Petrie probably as has scored 85 in the past, if Krak plays mids though anyhting is possible
Durability: Petrie

Think I just convinced myselff, hm....

I havent heard anything about Petrie missing round 1 due to a ban. Maybe speculation that he should have got something for his bump that he laid

I'll just put Mzungu on the field.

Hey If anything the break will do him good for the rest of the season. ;)

You got to be positive.

SydneyRox · February 21, 2011, 08:34:05 PM

I would get him out of your rucks and keep him in your fwds so you can cover him with rookies in rnds 1 and 3

Sumner probably wont play round one BTW, he has a few guys in front of him yet

Chopps · February 21, 2011, 09:19:37 PM

you wont have any price rd then till rd 5, your gonna stretch your bench early, no petrie or gc rookies 1 atleast. (rd 1 not a drama) rd 3 if you got richardson aswell.

wow im in trouble i have smith as my cover so in round 1 im currently eating a donut my other pick of getting fraser gives me the same problem. I might have to drop montagna back to anthony again and upgrade petrie to sandi and than get in petrie for krak

mote · February 23, 2011, 02:56:22 PM

if you are getting rid of petrie i reckon get on josh fraser?
number 1 ruck at GCS and looked alright in the first NAB games
worth a look

Prospector_1 · February 23, 2011, 03:09:03 PM

Starting to think I'll keep him.

with all the people jumping off he is getting less common each day, im just not sure how i can cover him 2 out of 3 times in the first round.
